- Volvo S80 - Fix the annoying high pitch tea kettle sounding squealing noise coming from the back of the engine on your Volvo. This was done on a 2010 Volvo S80 3.2 liter, but many other Volvo’s have the same style PCV valve. This was a 15 minute fix and cost $25.
I used this part on Amazon:

Thank you for mentioning the positioning of the cap before you press on. I forgot to make note of it and had a hard time pushing it back on until i saw that mentioned on your video.
Thanks for your post , the PCV finally came in and I installed it in 1/2 hr . I used a small chisel to cut the plastic on the old valve and a small rocking pry bar to remove it . Had slight difficulty in getting the new one to engage the slots but finally got it seated after some perseverance. Thanks again for your video it was very helpful.
Glad it helped. No better feeling than fixing it yourself and saving $$$
Worked great, thanks for posting
Glad it helped
Thank you I thought it was the water pump on my wife’s 2008 XC 90 but after watching this I’m quite certain it’s the PVC valve .
Let me know man, super easy fix to an annoying problem!
Just did my 2010 XC60 T6 3.0l R design. same issue but I changed out the whole box to the tune of 377🇨🇦 plus tax 🤨. Volvo said they don’t sell just the diaphragm so they’re no help there, only the full unit. If I keep the car long enough, I’m pushing 250k kilometres / 160k miles, I’ll opt for this method. Seems to work for many folks, just the odd complaint. Good thing I did however because the box that was on there wasn’t even properly secured. Third of bolts were not secure in their holes and others came off by hand, so whoever did it previously, left it for me to deal with y’a know..🤨. Good video Skiz 😎
Hey Skiz, looks like we've got ourselves twin cars.. My S80 makes an awful noise after about 15 min of driving, stops under acceleration and returns when letting off the gas.. As I understand the engine causes a vacuum pulling the diaphragm closed.. I would be interested to know if replacing the valve solved this issue for you as a $25-30 sure beats having to take my volvo into a shop..
Hey, this 100% fixed the issue. We haven’t heard the loud pitch squeal since I replaced it. I would absolutely suggest trying this very easy fix before bringing to a mechanic if you are comfortable doing it. It really is pretty easy and saved me hundreds!
The clips are on the side facing the engine or did I miss something? If any of them would be on the other side getting them off would be close to impossible without removing the whole oil filter housing.
The clips that you are breaking off are on the filter itself. Yes there are a couple clips on the side facing the engine, but once you break a couple that are facing you, you can just pull the old filter right off from the front. The back clips will just kind of pry off. It took me 3 minutes to take off.
